His philosophy is straightforward: to forge a stronger bond between you and your dog through mutual trust.
I've had the honor of training hundreds of dogs, including companion dogs, rescue dogs, service dogs, and working dogs. Each success story fills me with immense joy. My aim is clear: to enhance the quality of life for you and your dog. I believe that engagement and a reward-based approach to dog training can create an unbreakable bond. I look forward to joining you and your dog on this journey.
This is dedicated to Argos, the dog that I lost but with me every day.
Hello! I’m Courteney, and I'm genuinely excited to work with you and your dog to build a stronger, happier, and more manageable everyday life together!
My approach to dog training is built on a foundation of deep-seated compassion and dedication. Before dedicating myself fully to K9 solutions, I worked in healthcare. This background taught me the vital importance of patience, clear communication, and customized care—qualities I now wholeheartedly extend to people and their beloved pets.
My commitment to understanding and caring for dogs started early. From the age of 12, I took on the full responsibility of caring for new family puppies every summer. Living in a home surrounded by dogs has always been a joy, and it solidified my belief that a well-understood dog is a well-behaved dog.
Today, my home is happily shared with our own dog, Kronos. I partner with Dr. Aldin and the team at Everyday K9 Solutions to offer comprehensive, real-world services designed to make your life easier:
• Basic & Advanced Obedience Training
• Puppy & Foundational Training
• Premium Boarding (Focused Attention)
• Behavioral Consultations
• Dog Walking
I maintain a flexible work schedule to provide unlimited, focused attention to the dogs in our care. To ensure every pet receives the highest quality of individualized support, I host a deliberately small number of dogs at a time. Your dog won't get lost in a crowd; they will be treated like family, receiving the individualized love and focused solutions they need to thrive in your home.
